VN Ren'Py Being a DIK [v0.10.1] [Dr PinkCake]

[Machete]

No, no, no, no, no.
At least for me it had nothing to do with not getting the 'happy harem' ending.
It had to do with being put in the position to have to choose (even if only by proxy) which girl to leave to burn to death.

Now... maybe I'm a tad more sensitive about this then some. I got trapped in the middle of a brush fire when I was in my early teens. But even so...
Burning is a fucking horrific way to die.
And, even if only in a story, getting put in the position of choosing who suffers one of the worst imaginable fates.
Nuh uh....

Perfectly understandable, and i'm very sorry for your terrible experience. Of course Acting Lesson was meant to be a strongly emotional story with a shocking sudden twist. A real punch in the guts.

I don't think Being a DIK will go anywhere near to this, despite it's going to be still an emotional experience. It won't be a light hearted 'fuck anyone' VN.

And i'd say this is DrPinkCake's thing. He's very talented in taking the reader where he wants, emotionally. I mean, what other VN in this site makes you genuinely care and feeling attached to the male supports in the story? And both AL and BaDIK perfectly menage to do so, and it tells a lot about what a good storytyeller DPC is.

I was thinking more of the image that the game and DPC sends back to those who have heard of it, or to players who don't read the story and are there for the sex scenes.

For them, DPC appears to be the evil dev that set harem hopes in fire.

I did only one part of AL, being only with Megan, and it marked me. Fortunately, we still have a nice ending afterwards, it softens the trauma of what happened before a bit.

Basically, What you wrote is correct to some degree. MC can or can not cheat on his GF. We have multiple options to pursue more than one girl in the story. So far, No GF has cheated on MC.

DIK in the title is the name of a fraternity Delta Iota Kappa. It doesn't have anything to do with MC's personality, We have the choice in game to make MC's Personality.

Technically speaking, MC isn't cheating on anyone atm, because he's not actually romantically involved with any of the girls as of right now. I'm of the opinion that the cheating tag refers to the M&J relationship and the Sage/Chad relationship. Jade can be considered to be cheating too. As with Bella. Hence the cheating tag.

Important question:
Did you have any spoilers with AL?
Did you know 'the choice' was coming?

Because I'd (somehow) managed to find that game without knowing about 'the choice'. And I'd chosen to do a first (and would turn out to be last) playthrough of the game without any guides.
'That moment' in the story hit me without any warning.

Now, any good story (and DPC does tell a good story) pulls in you a bit. Gets you to connect / relate with the characters.
'Choose your own' style stories even more so, because they give you the illusion of having some control of the narrative. They seem to bring you a little bit inside of the 4th wall.
You are the one telling the story.
You are the one making the choice of who dies. And, hell, lets toss in you're choosing who's left to die in one the most feared ways. Burning to death.

So... yeah...
Between not knowing it was about to happen and the choice being in my hands...

DPC got exactly what most story tellers try to get. A strong emotional response.
In this case it's a strong negative emotion.

Nothing surprising about the 'reputation' that followed.

Spoiler: Just AL spoiler, nothing about BaD

That was what made me start to worry for BaD's story. I started to be afraid of future episode plots, and I'm still really hoping that DPC doesn't pull another AL on us. I mean, sure, it creates drama, tension and pain, but I'm perfectly content with how everything is going so far in BaD, it's still fun and relatable, with the perfect amount of drama. I don't need another traumatic AVN experience. It was that day that I finally understood why people were worried about the direction DPC'd take with BaD.

Welcome to the Visual Novel world! True, there are some visual novel in which every single character is grotesqueli disproportionate. I will never understand this kinda american idea of "the bigger the better". Who wants a woman on whose ass you can land a Boeing 747?

It's not the case of BaDIK. Yes, there is plenty of Big Ass/Big Boobs ladies, but it's more for giving something for every taste.

But the real concern, in visual novels in general, are the "owners" of the titzillas... and i mean... What the fuck with all this MILF obsession??? Ok, something for every taste, but MILF are insanely over represented in this games. What's up? An Oedipus Complex epidemic among the devs?

Not that i mind a grown up woman, i got my age myself, but i really don't understand what would ever move a 18-19 old guy to pursuite a woman in his 40s. Ok, she's hot and you could go for a night of fun but... being ossessed by one? It's not the case of Being a DIK, but in some VNs MC seems not to be able to think to anything alse, like, for istance... the fucking girls his age!!

And then it's common ground among devs to justify the things with "yah, but MILFs have this huge titzillas!!!!".
Spoiler allert: NO, THEY DON'T.
They have titzillas if they had titzillas when they where young, and now, at best, they are "relaxed" titzillas. Which is cool, i'm an aged man and i find actractive women at my age, but just, a human body doesn't work like that. It's not like somewhere in between 35 and 40 suddenly an average breast starts to swell to untold proportions and becomes as hard as granite. Quite the opposite.

I mean, if she's 30-40 years old, has a great personality, is experienced with sex, and makes a living for herself, I'd go for her too, no cap. But I understand what you mean with the stereotypical MILF. In porn and hentai, MILFs usually have large as fuck bazonkers, and that's what causes the stereotype. I think it's just because it appeals to a wider audience, that's why MILFs are usually portrayed as big-tittied women.

I'm glad we have Nicole in the game, she's a bombshell MILF and her tits are just the right size: not too big, not too small. She has experience, she has it all. An ahegao face, going at her own pace, boy do I love me some Nicole.

I got little upset with Nikki because she shared MC with Sanda ,
(not a fan of 3ways and not good at sharing ... get your own toys)
i was looking more for romanace type of thing with her .
She's great but i guess she just looking for something on the side not anything serious.

i wouldnt care if there was 3way later down the line but that was their first time in private .
(Sandra is ok i dont hate her but she not my type - nikki is)

 

[LoDoN-]

Man, I wish I could get with some redheads. Playing BaD and meeting Sage left me with a love for redheads, and there aren't really any of 'em here in Asia Closest I've been is looking at cute IG redheads. There's one of 'em that kinda looks like Sage, cute and hot at the same time.

Shit, y'all experienced a lot as teens. I can't relate but I'm hoping y'all managed to find closure and move on, or just kept going strong and never looked back. Y'all here now with a whole community full of DIK brothers, man. Not sure if it helps coming from an anonymous stranger on the Internet, but you guys are hella strong for pushing through the emotional pain that is relationships.

And LoDon, after reading your story, I feel sorry for her too. She sounds like she's had to mature at an early age, and that really fucking sucks. Hoping that her life's better now, after all the shit she's been through.

1. You telling me JAV's Lied? There are no Cute Asian Redheads near my vicinity?

2. It's fine bruv, I shouldn't have said anything, it just popped into my head after a long time, before I thought about I was already telling the story, tho I might have left a lot of details, but that is inconsequential.

3. From what I heard, she is not doing any better, became a lifer, as a teenager she was in and out of Juvi (older criminals put minors to do their biding coz juvenals don't get really arrested), now I haven't heard from/about her in years.

 

[Aerlwyn]

Its a great game just the latest version just seems to freeze up for me and then crashes so not sure what is wrong with it.

It's not like there are tons of redheads in US either. That's an extremely recessive hair color. So unless you're lucky and know some Irish descendant gal in your immediate vicinity, only a lucky few actually get with a real ginger. ( I don't count bottle blondes as blondes and dyed redheads as redheads, in case the statement doesnt make it obvious.)

If you are playing the compressed version, it has issues. Try the big one.

Thanks will see if that fixes it.

The Game has its own limit of Physical and Verbal Abuse so you can't treat girls like trash.

On the contrary...

BaDIK has a much less dark history for the moment. In AL, even before the fire, there were very harsh themes (domestic violence, illness, etc.).

I would imagine that some form of domestic violence, perpetrated by whomever, has already happened in EP1 and EP2.
Look at Josy's left elbow on screenshot 1. On screenshot 2 her left wrist. In Ep2, Josy keeps the shirt from the MC, which reappears in EP5. Look at the left sleeve of the shirt.

I think that Maya is cheating on Josy. And with whom? Jill. Read the text from the screenshot and see Tybalt's eyes. He looks past Josy and at Maya. In the following picture Josy looks at Maya very questioningly and not happily.

More important is Maya's reaction to this post, as seen in the following screenshot. Notice how her right eye is reading with a complete look of incredulity, while her left eye is looking up and to the right, thus searching her right brain functions for some creative or intuitive reconciliation of the theory that defies logic.

I know what you are trying to tell me. But I still think that there are identical twins in the game. And Josy will have a twin named Josephine. And stupidly they both want to have the MC for themselves. The one power the first step in the market. The other gets that and goes on the date with the MC before college. She gets the red shirt from the MC and as soon as he leaves with his bike, the two sisters fight over the shirt. (I find that funny)

But what's even funnier, Maya can't tell the two apart either.

And now I make it hilarious. Maya also has an identical twin and they all can't tell each other apart.

Gangbang.

Totally. They abuse of this wierd sistem in wich older means bigger boobs. You get 18 old girls with smal boobs, then mid 20s with bigger boobs and 40s with giant boobs. It is absurd, and also, boob lovers like myself have to choose beetween a young girl with medium boobs or an older woman with big boobs, when what we want is young girls with big boobs.
Even Badik has something of that, the bustier is Bella who is in mid 30's. Then you got Sandee, Jade, Nora and Madame, all of wich are older. Young girls they are still normal sized or even big but natural like Sage or Heather.
